C894 There Was Actually a Hidden Story

As if he was worried that Du Qi would suspect him, Woo Kai did not say anything else. Immediately, he changed the topic very naturally and introduced the various parts of the manor to Du Qi. It was just a brief introduction, but it also took a lot of time to change the topic. It was only when the sky turned dark did he get a general idea of the Secluded Mountain Manor. Woo Kai asked without any hesitation, "What do you think about our manor?"

Du Qi wanted to express his views directly, but he was afraid that he would delay the date of the appointment with Looh Miaoer. The arrangement of the manor could only be discussed in the future. At this moment, he could only say against his heart, "That's right!"

Woo Kai said, "Don't play dumb. This manor is also yours now. You must do your best! My personal disciples are already waiting in the Black Tortoise Courtyard. Go and meet them, and give them a few pointers at the same time!"

Du Qi said modestly, "With Boss's personal teachings, what qualifications do I have to give them pointers?"

Woo Kai smiled lightly and said, "You don't have to refuse. Other people don't know you, but do you think I don't know? If you, as the Martial Uncle, don't guide them, who will guide them?"

Du Qi asked curiously, "Martial Uncle?"

Woo Kai said matter-of-factly, "We serve the same person, so we should be considered to be in the same sect. Don't you think it's the master of my disciples? Or should I say that I don't deserve to be your senior brother?"

Du Qi smiled bitterly and said, "Since Boss says so, then I will do my best."

Woo Kai said with satisfaction, "That's more like it!"

Ever since he knew Woo Kai, Du Qi did not think of Woo Kai as a passerby from the bottom of his heart. In order to rule the Heaven Connecting Sect alone, he had thought of getting rid of Woo Kai. Now, he was also scheming. A desire! He had never thought that he would address Woo Kai as his senior and junior brothers by subjugating Woo Kai. He had never thought that Woo Kai would have such thoughts. This had changed Du Qi's impression of Woo Kai. Similarly, he was trying to win over the hearts of the people. Woo Kai's actions had undoubtedly made it harder for people to reject him. Whether it was true feelings or false feelings, it also showed Woo Kai's open-mindedness from another aspect. It made Du Qi feel deeply relieved!

Almost without pausing, Woo Kai continued to speak in a somewhat desolate manner, "The cultivation method I gave those personal disciples came from Master, and it was originally incomplete. It is also difficult for them to achieve great things, and you obtained even less. I am truly powerless to guide them, but it is your skill in alchemy and artifact forging. They might be interested!"

Du Qi had long known that Woo Kai was interested in the art of alchemy and artifact forging, but he didn't know that his cultivation method would make others jealous. Now, he had no qualms about helping the Secluded Mountain Manor's Second Manor Lord, and he also had the intention to subdue Woo Kai. Naturally, Du Qi would treat everything in the Secluded Mountain Manor as his own. He would no longer have any thoughts of hiding anything. However, it was not convenient for him to speak openly at this moment, so he smiled and said, "As long as Boss takes a fancy to us, we can have a good exchange at that time. Perhaps there will be unexpected gains. "

Woo Kai sighed with difficulty and said, "The path of cultivation is very profound. How can it be possible for us to obtain the path through discussion? If Master can teach us everything, we might have a chance to obtain the way. But, Master... Sigh!"

Du Qi comforted him," Boss, there's no need to make things difficult. Maybe things are not as you and I imagined. "

Woo Kai said, "Brother, you have only met Master once. You don't know that Master's mind is strange and unfathomable. Although we are under his control, he is still wary of us. He is worried about us!"

Du Qi smiled and said, "It seems that Boss is somewhat dissatisfied."

Woo Kai's expression suddenly changed and stared at Du Qi. After a long time, he said earnestly, "Master taught me a peerless skill and treated me well. It can be said that he gave birth to a new parent. How could I dare to disrespect him? I dare not be dissatisfied! Brother, the two of us met the same fate. We should watch over and support each other, so we shouldn't fight for favour and harm each other!"

Du Qi naturally understood Woo Kai's worries and the meaning behind his words. He also knew that Woo Kai's motive for roping him in wasn't just this. Although he was not worried that Woo Kai would badmouth him in front of Woo Jifeng, he was worried that Woo Kai would be a hindrance to him when he used the Heaven Connecting Sect's power. In order to prevent Woo Kai from noticing that something else was going on in his mind, Du Qi quickly nodded and agreed, "Boss, what you said is exactly what I want!"

Woo Kai seemed to have let go of something and said with a smile, "That's good!" Immediately after, he had a troubled look on his face. Woo Kai said, "Actually, Master is also quite difficult. He only wants to escape, but he is also afraid of reappearing in the martial arts world."

Du Qi was confused. "Why is that?"

Woo Kai suddenly said in a low voice, "I am not sure about this either. It seems that the person who imprisoned him is still there. It seems that he is waiting for someone to appear and is preparing to give Master to him as a servant."

Du Qi could not help but be shocked when he heard this. It was a whimsical idea for him to subdue Woo Jifeng. Who would have thought that there was someone else behind this matter? It seemed like it would be impossible to subdue Woo Jifeng anymore. Du Qi said in distress, "Doesn't this mean that we are going to be servants of others?"

Woo Kai said in unison, "Who says not? That's why I created this Secluded Mountain Manor, hoping to make some progress, or to be able to take charge. Now it seems that this idea is too naive. "

Du Qi was puzzled and asked, "Such a secret thing, why did boss tell me directly?"

Woo Kai pondered and said, "To tell you the truth, I am still unsatisfied with this encounter. I came to you that day and wanted to borrow your artifact forging skills. He released his master ahead of time and forced the person in the dark to resolve this matter. I didn't expect you to end up like me, this is the reason I let you down... That's why I shared everything with you as compensation."

Du Qi knew that Woo Kai's words were not sincere, but had other intentions. Du Qi could not help feeling even worse. He said bitterly, "Can this be compensated?"

Woo Kai said, "I also know that this matter is difficult to compensate, but since it has come to this, this is all I can do."

Woo Kai said it very sincerely. Du Qi could not help but let go of it. He did not want to be entangled in this matter. So he said, "Okay, let's not talk about this anymore. What do you plan to do in the future?"

Woo Kai was a little depressed and said, "What plans can I have? I am already old, so I can only take one step at a time. But you're different from me. You're still young, and you still have a long way to go. Thus, the two of us have to work together, advance and retreat together. This way, our lives might be a bit better. I wonder what do you think?"

Du Qi understood what Woo Kai was thinking. Being controlled by Woo Jifeng's medicinal pill was not something he wished to do. If he was controlled by Woo Jifeng's future master, no one would be willing to imagine that scene. That was why Woo Kai kept expressing goodwill to him, hoping to pull him along to fight against the unknown fate in the future. However, the outcome was hard to predict, and they could only plan to go against it. However, his situation was different from Woo Kai's. As long as his cultivation was strong enough, although he had already refined a Violet Palace Nascent Soul, he did not have an advantage over Woo Kai, and his cultivation base was far weaker than Woo Jifeng's. He also did not know how the cultivation level of Woo Jifeng's future master would be. It seemed like he would have to put in more effort in the path of cultivation!
